A motorcyclist has died after a four-vehicle crash on the A1079 between Hull and York earlier.

Humberside Police said a blue Suzuki VL800 motorcycle, silver Hyundai I10, dark coloured VW Caravelle and a white DAF HGV were involved in a collision at Wilberfoss in East Yorkshire, near to David Smith Garden Centre, at about 09:00 GMT.

The force confirmed the rider of the Suzuki died at the scene and his family were being supported by specialist trained officers.
